Description

Rhetoric in Byzantium examines how rhetoric shaped Byzantine society as both a powerful instrument for communicating ideas and ideologies and occasionally an obstacle to genuine expression. This scholarly collection, drawn from the Thirty-fifth Spring Symposium of Byzantine Studies at Oxford, explores rhetoric's dual nature in Byzantine culture. After establishing the practical and textual foundations of Byzantine rhetoric, the papers are organised into five sections that progress from the fundamentals of Byzantine rhetoric through its public applications in imperial and ecclesiastical ceremonies, before examining how rhetoric functioned across other dimensions of Byzantine life. The volume provides essential insights into the role of language, performance, and persuasion in shaping Byzantine intellectual, religious, and political discourse.

Key Features

Compiled from the Thirty-fifth Spring Symposium of Byzantine Studies held at Exeter College, University of Oxford in March 2001.

Structured in five sections progressing from foundational concepts to public ceremonial applications of Byzantine rhetoric.

Explores rhetoric as both an effective communication tool and a potential barrier to authentic expression in Byzantine society.

Published by Routledge, a leading academic publisher specialising in history and cultural studies.

Examines imperial and ecclesiastical ceremonial uses of rhetoric in Byzantine public life.

Provides scholarly analysis of how Byzantine rhetoric functioned as a complex social and cultural phenomenon.
